I remember when the 1942 aluminum cent was first posted raw to the forums, with edge photos showing the peidfort planchet. Now that it's slabbed, we don't get that look anymore, so I'm glad I was there for that thread. Not sure anyone will ever be able to enjoy photos of the raw edge again!
Sadly, I am pretty clueless on how to take true view image link and post it here so that image fleshes out with cool image & not just a blue external site link.
Lance Newman was exceptionally helpful in my thread. I hope Lance is OK ! He went dark here at post 19,999 a while back. His artsy input made me further enjoy my lucky purchase:

No TrueView on this double struck flip-over Peace Dollar but it’s extremely rare:

Awesome coin! But it needs a TrueView! Can you convince the current owner to get one? They do have in-holder TrueViews now so you don't need to reholder!
By the way, I just had to look up some flip-overs, so here are two!

Congrats on owning such a wonderful coin!
I have a few dozen true view error coins.

Here’s a double-struck 1723 South Sea Company British sixpence which was double-struck with the second strike 25% off-center.
